Abstract: The invention seeks to provide an electronic apparatus in which a generator can
be halted for sure when the rotation of the generator is slow and in which the generator
is prevented from being halted due to a disturbance, etc. so that the duration will be
extended. An electronically controlled mechanical timepiece, which is an electronic
apparatus, comprises a generator 2 which is driven by a mainspring 1 to generate an
electric energy, and a rotation controlling unit 50 which is driven by the electric energy
to control the rotation rate of the generator 2. The rotation controlling unit 50 comprises
a brake controlling unit 55 which compares a rotation detection signal FG1 in
accordance with the rotation rate of the generator 2 with a reference signal fs to control
braking on the generator 2, and a generator halting unit 56 which applies a brake and
halts the generator 2 if the braking amount applied to the generator 2 in a preset time is
smaller than or equal to a first braking preset value. Because the generator 2 is halted in
accordance with the braking amount in a preset time, the generator 2 is prevented from
being halted due to a temporary disturbance while the generator 2 is halted for sure
when the rotation becomes slow.

Abstract: The present invention in one aspect is directed to a method for labeling the durable surface of an object for its identification, which object has a durable surface or a durable surface tag affixed to the object. This method includes the use of "pit and fall" (i.e., holes and bumps as are used to record compact discs, CD-ROMs) technology to encode durable surface objects with coded message. The coded message can be information on the owner, a history of the object, or any other information desired. The coded message would not be detectable to the human eye; however, by scanning the pits and falls with a laser, the coded message could be detected and displayed. Such coded message encoding could be used, for example, to label objects for their identification in case of theft, or in case of product counterfeiting or diversion.
